Reviews

'This book demonstrates not just that health is everyone's business, but how constellations of communities, governments and industry partners create new opportunities for that business. Reporting on five great world cities the authors provide a concise and convincing argument that visions and ambitions for urban health can successfully extend far beyond the traditional health care bureaucracy. Truly inspirational!' Evelyne de Leeuw, Deakin University, Australia '... the book offers its readers an intelligible package which comprehensively reviews the relevant theory, frameworks, tools and most innovative policies for developing Healthy Cities... a valuable asset to assist health planners and decision-makers to reconceptualise their thinking and guide their approach toward developing Healthy Cities and communities.' Australian Planner
